Abstract

AbstractWe have made hydrodynamic calculations of steady coronal loops maintained close to steady conditions with a heating entirely made of a sequence (either randomic or periodic) of small events of energy input into the plasma. To study their observability, we synthesize the emission in bands observable by X-ray instruments, such as imaging instruments, like Yohkoh/SXT and the forthcoming SOHO/EIT. We present results for one specific calculation and discuss them in terms of the possible diagnostics of variable heating vs. steady one and of the feasibility of direct detection of loop variability.
